Destaco 640-MR straight line action clamp is designed for holding a workpiece in place by applying force from the side. This clamp is suitable for various heavy duty push / pull clamping tasks including welding, tensioning, assembly & testing operations. Destaco straight line action clamp features carbon steel construction & zinc plated finish that delivers high resistance against wear / damage from harsh industrial conditions. Its patented Toggle Lock Plus feature operates from a locking release lever to ensure, over centre locking condition is sustained throughout the clamping operation. This in turn prevents the workpiece from loosening from external conditions & vibrations. Destaco straight line action clamp's handle locks in both extended & retracted positions that enable the user to use this clamp either in push or pull type configuration. The clamp's handle can be adjusted which allows it to rotate and in turn fall below the mounting plane, thereby locking it in the retracted position. This handle features a large plastic grip that ensures user comfort for prolonged usage. Destaco straight line action clamp's round plunger securely holds the workpiece in position for preventing slippage mid operation. Destaco straight line clamp comes with a flanged style base for ease of installation on flat surfaces / workbenches. For environments having no risk of workpiece loosening against vibrations, various 640 Series straight line action clampswithout Toggle Lock Plus feature are also available.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. Does the brand offer straight line action clamps in other styles?
A. Yes, apart from this carbon steel clamp, Destaco also offers various similar clamp variants, such as Toggle Lock Plus enabled clamps (Destaco 640-R clamp & Destaco 640-MR clamp) as well.
Q. What is a straight line action clamp?
A. Destaco straight line action clamps are manual operated push / pull style clamps that are used for various applications including welding, woodworking, tensioning devices and other assembly & testing operations.
Q. What does clamping force mean?
A. Clamping force is the amount of force actually applied to a workpiece by closing & locking the clamp. It is normally less than the stated holding capacity. The actual clamping force depends on various factors, such as cylinder bore, cylinder area, spindle position (clamping arm length) and available air pressure. In most cases, the clamping force is approximately 2 to 3 times the force exerted by a pneumatic cylinder.
Q. What is manual clamping?
A. Unlike straight line action pneumatic clamps, regular manual style clamps from Destaco feature separate handles for engaging the plunger to hold the workpiece in place.
Q. How do straight line action clamps work?
A. Some straight line action clamps, such as Destaco 640-MR clamp, feature a threaded plunger that is manually fastened using a plastic grip handle. These clamps feature a two way locking handle (retracted or extended position) for enabling the user to use this clamp either in push or pull type configuration.
Q. What does holding capacity mean in terms of clamps?
A. The holding capacity or the holding force depicts the clamp's capability to hold down the equipment or sheet metal on the assembly line or during any other manufacturing process.
Q. Are Destaco clamps rust resistant?
A. Yes, carbon steel clamps from Destaco are zinc plated for withstanding & minimising wear against harsh industrial environments. For applications that require clamping in outdoor conditions, stainless steel clamps are also available.
Q. Which grease is recommended for use with Destaco clamps when rebuilding?
A. For ensuring smooth operation & durability of mechanical clamps, it is recommended to use a coupling grease like Mobil XTC.
Q. What does the red colour of the handle of Destaco clamps mean?
A. The red coloured handles alert the user about the location of the operating handle and when he should grab it. The red colour has no additional advantage to the working of the clamps.
